Hi everyone,
I'm working with Business Central and I've noticed a behavior regarding VAT entries that I'd like to better understand.
When I post a sales invoice containing two lines with the same VAT posting setup (same VAT % and VAT identifiers) but different dimensions, the system creates two separate VAT entries. From what I can see, this happens because separate G/L entries are generated for each sales line due to the dimension differences, and the VAT entries follow that split.
My question is whether there is any standard Business Central functionality or setup that allows VAT amounts to be consolidated into a single VAT entry when the VAT information is identical, regardless of dimension differences.
If there is no standard way to achieve this, has anyone implemented a simple customization to consolidate VAT entries during posting? I'd be interested in understanding the complexity of such a solution and whether there are any potential reporting or audit implications to consider.
Thanks in advance for any insights or experiences you can share.
